ATOYUS Children's Activity Cubes Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Choking Hazard; Violate Small Parts Ban and Mandatory Standard for Toys; Sold on Amazon by Melofaver US

What's being recalled

This recall involves ATOYUS branded children's wooden activity cubes. The toys consist of a multi sided wooden cube with different activities on each panel, 15 animal and people-shaped pieces, a playmat with a farm image and a mallet. The cube's top has a bead maze with metal wires and wooden beads that can be lifted to access internal storage. The side panels include a shape sorter, a xylophone, a learning clock, rotating gears, a farm animal puzzle and felt flaps. "Model No. GLBB554" and the brand name are printed on the back for the toys' box.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The recalled toys violate the small parts ban because the toys are intended for children under three and the toys' xylophone screws and clock hands can detach. In addition, the toys violate the mandatory safety standard for children's toys because the mallets have spherical ends, posing a choking hazard.
